In June 2021 I went for a blood test after becoming increasingly thirsty and consuming a lot more water than normal. This was on a Thursday evening, and by Friday early morning I was at West Middlesex Hospital with Insulin being fed into me via a drip with a blood sugar level of over 30 (the normal level is between 4 and 7). I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and spent the next 5 days in hospital as my body slowly recovered to a normal state. While there I had to learn how to check my blood, inject insulin every time I ate anything and whenever my levels rose and also gradually come to terms with the life changing condition that huge numbers of Children and Adults in the UK also have.Over the months the doctors and nurses at both West Middlesex and especially Ealing Hospital have helped me through this and I am now starting to control this a lot better thanks to them and the equipment they have provided alongside Diabetes UK. I now have a sensor and pump pod attached to me constantly to give me a better grasp on my levels and make treating a lot easier and less painful.
Along with the Dance Studio where I take a number of classes, Innovation Dance, in Ealing, we are running a fundraising day that will involve dancing, arts and crafts, cake sale and a prize draw with some amazing prizes donated by both local and national companies.All the money raised will go directly to Diabetes UK and help them provide care for people with Diabetes and hopefully assist in the research to help make this condition much more manageable.Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and thanks in advance for any donation you can make, it will be greatly appreciated no matter how big or small.
We have Dance and Fitness Sessions running from 10am onwards.
Latest Addition 11am Multi Sport Session on the pitch at Trailfinders run by the Ealing Trailfinders Community Coaches.
Please sign up and donate, let us know which session you wish to attend in your donation.
Thanks
